May we all rise above and act better towards each other in 2026! Happy New Year

 
Me. contemplating the upcoming new year.

Running through my head, as always on this date.,,

Not that my dating life has been that exciting, but just once I'd like to have some plans with a date I would look forward to seeing. I've become so jaded as I've gotten older..  A small part of me misses the thrill and excitement  of finding and liking someone new..  Who knows?  Maybe 2026 will offer some surprises.

Inquiring minds want to know...

What are you doing New Years Eve?

Rest in Peace

I just found out that Gil Gerard passed away a few days ago,  As a young teen infatuated with science fiction and shirtless men he played an important role in my formative years.

Guess who stopped to pull one or two weeds this morning before biking to the gym, and then never made it to the gym....

 

And speaking of gardening....

 Black Swallow-Wort is an invasive, aggressive species that is harmful to butterflies.  My new hobby while out walking is to pull it, or at least collect and properly discard it's seedpods, whenever I encounter it.

And you also said "pink friend"...

 As corporate media bows to Trump, public broadcasting has never been more important to our democracy. If radio stations and TV affiliates close, millions will lose access to critical news and education programs. It's up to us now to support our local public broadcasting stations. Trump is trying to control not just what we do, but what we know. Be warned. [Cartoon by Joe Wos]
